Notes
- The main image for this page is a shot from the original version of the episode – the shot of the four other Constitution class ships. I still prefer this version that uses the original special effects.
- Commodore Robert Wesley is played by Barry Russo. Russo was one of Kirk’s security officers in “The Devil in the Dark“.
- The M5 computer was voiced by James Doohan.

LOVED THIS! Outside of the very good drama about a brilliant man descending into madness over his creation, I got a great "ship" show. But I also got one with a space battle & the fun of a Constitution pic.twitter.com/seMcb7NMVo

class ship fighting others. The shot of 4 ships on screen at once was burned into my brain from childhood. One of my top eps. It isn't always mentioned in lists of best ones. Some great McCoy lines here. pic.twitter.com/GlFRcpX3Jl
